Hi Josh,

Precise error messages would have been helpful, but I think I recognise some
of which you speak (vector graphic rendering).

See if these instructiosn help:

Trouble installing Vector Graphics Rendering

1. Manually install vector graphics rendering.

Create a folder on the C: drive and call it VGX. Do this by double-clicking
on My Computer, then double-clicking on the C: drive. Right-click on an open
spot in that window and select New>Folder. While the "New Folder" title is
highlighted, type in VGX and press [enter]

Extract the following 3 files into the C:\VGX folder: vgx.cat, vgx.inf,
vgx.dll. Do this by searching for the VGX.CAB file on your hard drive.
Double-click on it. Extract the 3 vgx files listed above to C:\VGX.

Register the files from step B. by clicking on Start>Run, and pasting in the
following line and clicking Okay:

rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 C:\VGX\vgx.inf

Check to see if this fix worked by restarting your computer, then going nto
My Computer-->Control Panel-->Add/Remove Programs. Double-click on MS
Internet Explorer 6. See if we can still add in the component vector
graphics rendering. If it is no longer an option, it has been installed
successfully. If that did not work, try the next fix:

2. Move the C:\windows\hosts directory so that Windows cannot find it.

Double-click on My Computer. Double-click on the C: drive.Double-click on
Windows.

Inside the Windows directory, right-click on the hosts folder and hold the
button down. Drag the folder to the desktop and let go of the button. Click
on "move here." Try adding in the components again. It should now finish
everything. Remember to move the hosts folder back into the C:\windows
directory when you are finished.
